SheCodes Coding Workshop Reviews

Thanks to team SheCodes or interesting materials, checking homework and constant online support.

It was amazing 3 weeks! I liked short lesson-videos. Everything was understandable and I liked to make my homework. Thank you for this journey to the wonderful world of coding

SheCodes is an amazing workshop and i highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in coding. I've always thought that coding was not what i could do until i decided to learn at SheCodes and with the challenges and homework at the end of each learning session i built confidence over time and yes! i was able to build my first ever landing page. I'm super grateful to Matt for been a great teacher,i enjoyed the support i got from the SheCodes team and other coders on the SheCodes slack community.

I’ve done a couple of coding courses online in the past and I have loads of ideas. But I get overwhelmed and I’m not good at my code writing. So I still felt stuck. After getting into Shecodes Basic workshop for just this few weeks, I am able to write codes and even create my own pages because the way the teaching and lessons are been delivered including the homework's has given me some direction and motivation to sort out myself in coding. Shecodes teaching is simple, yet detailed, and I love the huge number of examples in this course. I had not realized how powerful examples are. The examples help teach me all the basics i needed to know to be able to code, and I’m starting to create my own pages. Many courses promise to give step-by-step guidance but still leave you wondering what to do next. Shecodes course is different. At the end of the course, I knew what to do. I’ve just finished my project work and hoping I would be creating more of those work so as to become familiar with the basics of coding. Thank you, Shecodes. I’m super-grateful for this course and making my dream come true.

Thank you for such a great opportunity to learn and grow up! It was really a pleasure to study in SheCodes! Everything is so well explained and homeworks are entertaining! Happy to be on class!

I loved the course. It was easy enough to follow along with the videos. The tasks and homework kept me accountable.

I started my coding journey just 2 months ago and I can't believe I made it through all 4 courses. Finishing has a lot do to with the system SheCodes provides, like the fast and helpful responses from the team, the challenges, the homework with deadlines, the projects and a very enthusiastic Matt. Most of the time it felt like bob sliding, high speed through the curves, gravity pulling you from left to right and back again. Reaching the finish line and looking back, I just realize how much I learned during the past two month. It felt so good to be challenged and grow. I feel motivated to build my own apps now and very grateful to SheCodes.

This was such a great course! It was easy to understand but challenging enough that I was able to learn through trial and error with the challenges and homeworks.

I had a lot of fun working through the different practice problems and seeing everything come together in the homework assignments at the end of each week. Every lesson builds upon the last in a neat, stepwise progression that makes learning feel like a bit of a challenge but not difficult. I appreciate how the answers aren't provided but that students are given the information they need to "Google it" and come to workable solutions on their own. Bonus? My daughters think I'm cool now :) That said: I encountered an issue when submitting my first week's homework assignment that has left me troubled. I replicated the provided example but, after review, I was notified that my homework was incomplete; when I checked to see what the problem could be, the link I had previously followed to the example opened a differently-formatted page. I went to Slack to ask if I would be required to reformat my homework despite my submission being a faithful representation of the original example and was answered with a request to post my question in another channel of slack because it was a "technical" problem; because the turnaround time for answers was slow (an as-advertised ~48hr) and I didn't want to wait (and I want to learn), I went ahead and reformatted the assignment. Still, I have two problems with this: 1. Assignments that require students to copy (nearly exactly) an example document should not be graded in comparison to example documents that did not exist at the time the assignment was completed. 2. A support team should provide support, not direct questions to different channels and then definitions of what "technical" means, even if it does mean something different (and so vague as to be meaningless) to them. I asked a question of the support team that pertained to a philosophical question, not a technical question: Considering that I submitted an assignment based upon an incompletely formatted example (that was available to me), would I be required (by the SheCodes team) to continue formatting my assignment to match an example that did not exist (to my eyes) until after I had submitted my assignment? When I indicated that my question was not technical in nature (I had no difficulties creating a document, coding a document to match the example available to me, or submitting a document), I was told that, essentially, all questions are technical questions and if I want an answer I should submit my questions to the proper channel. This is not a free course and it is alarming to me to be paying for support and receiving resistance, instead. Just an FYI. I am learning a lot, but I am someone who enjoys the Googling and searching and fiddling. If I were taking this course with the idea of getting (and receiving) much support from the support team, I'm not sure how that would be going.

I'm very happy with the SheCodes course. Weekly homework helps me stay motivated and the code I can build now is beyond what I hoped for!

I absolutely LOVE SheCodes! I almost went to a different bootcamp/workshop and am so glad I chose Matt and SheCodes instead. He showcases the material in a really easy to learn and digestible way and I get so much satisfaction from completing challenges, homework assignments and projects. The deadlines are helpful at keeping me on track and motivated to complete the modules, and the Slack community is super helpful whenever I get stuck on something. If you're considering where to go to learn to code, stop looking and come to SheCodes!

I do not have any experience with coding, but through the SheCodes Workshop I've gained the confidence of working with code. The course was well structured and was easy to navigate. I could apply my knowledge from the course through the homework and final project activities. It was a very interesting and informative workshop.

I'm really grateful for this amazing chance to open a new door of opportunity for all women. Somehow it still is a common prejudice that IT professions fit men the best. Throughout the whole introduction to the course as well as the course itself Matt Delac constantly supports code-beginners, feeds the feeling in us that 'you can do it! It's OK to make mistakes! I know its overwhelming, just hold on!" It helped me a lot- I fought the idea that I'm the slowest to complete the challenge or send the homework for review. And just moved on. Thank you, Matt, for supporting the underprivileged women, those who probably would never had a chance to try themselves in a new field. Thank you for inspiring us all!

Good course, everything is conveniently divided into blocks. Homework gives an opportunity to master the studied technologies. Everything is great.

The workshop is designed very well. Small lessons, achievable challenges and homework. And most important, a real-life project where you can apply all the knowledge you achieved during the course.

I have experience using HTML and CSS but have been out of practice for years. SheCodes was a great way to reintroduce myself to coding. I am pleased that I took this course. If you are interested in taking this course, I would recommend it. There was an excellent balance of learning new material, exercises, and homework.

very interactive lectures and homework

I have been wanting to take coding classes for awhile, but always found a reason to put it off. Shecodes was easy to commit to, watch the lessons, and get the homework done.

I really liked the course. Everything is very accessible and interestingly told and shown. There is an opportunity to do small assignments every lesson, so that by the end of the week you can do your homework. I really liked the idea of the final project, where you can show your imagination, creativity, thinking. Very good course, thanks a lot to Matt for this.

I can tell you that my 8weeks learning SheCodes Plus was really worth it, I enjoyed every bit of the training. The instructional videos with detailed explanations, challenges and homework made my learning easier and less stressful. Indeed, My instructor, Matt Delac is doing a great job.

For a newbie like me, SheCodes made it so easy. The videos, the challenges, the homework and the project has changed my life and given me a solid coding foundation. I can now create magic with my name on it. The SheCodes team is the most supportive and helpful team ever. Thank you for doing this for free for women especially African women.

SheCodes Basics was a super fun introduction to web development for me. The small challenges and weekly homework assignments really motivated me to keep going and I'm impressed by how much I could learn in 3 weeks next to my full-time job. Highly recommend!

SheCodes Basics is really good for getting started with coding. Thanks to three weeks of regular classes, I realized that studying can be interesting. Accessible materials, meaningful videos and enough time for homework. I can make my own website now. Moreover, I happened to get acquainted with different platforms that help a web developer in his project. Many thanks to the SheCodes for supporting Ukrainian women during the war. And thanks for giving me this course for free.

The truth is that the course has been perfect! It helps you to solve problems by combining different tools learned! I really enjoyed it and had fun with the challenges and homeworks. I’m happy to continue learning.

I like the lessons. I learn much. Sometimes homeworks could be irritating when I need to search for new parameters but I think it was an idea. It made me to learn more :)))

Lessons are explained in an easy way. Homework tasks are also very clear, but I find a little difficult to remember the code elements. Coding was very interesting and fun for me.

I barely finished SheCodes Basic workshop and I cannot wait to start the next one. I truly enjoyed everything about it! The weekly homework made me repeat what I've learned and also pushed me into searching other videos on Youtube and learning more in-depth. Recommend this to everyone that wants to get into this world of programming. The satisfaction of looking at something you created it's AMAZING!

As someone who had very little knowledge about coding, SheCodes has taught me so much already. Matt is great instructor, and having challenges and homework really helps to make sure that you understand what you're learning. I am looking forward to the next workshop.

I've really enjoyed my SheCodes basic course! I started doing it whilst on maternity leave with my 8 week old (probably not the best time to start learning something new - but I did it!). I realised that when I go back to work, I don't want to do what I was doing previously and want something which is more flexible. Matt made everything really easy to understand, and each video broke everything down well and the homework after each section was really helpful. I've really enjoyed the course so far, and look forward to continue with the next course when my little one is a bit older and we're in more of a routine. For the meantime, I will revisit the old videos and keep practicing to enhance my skills!

It was really interesting to study coding in SheCodes. The platform is easily understandable, and the Slack platform also works great. I like that every week is on a different channel. Information from the course was simply taught. The challenges and homeworks were interesting. I love coding! P.S. Radio is amazing😍

I have thoroughly enjoyed the SheCodes Basics workshop. The topics are discussed in a clear manner and the challenges and homework really help you to put what you've learned into practice. I look forward to learning even more!

It has been so much fun learning the basics of web development and it really made me want to challenge myself by learning more of it! Matt can explain things in a very clear way, and having the challenges and homework really helped keeping me accountable for it.

I started SheCodes because I want a career in tech. I've tried other courses but I like the accountability of submitting homework. Matt's videos were easy to follow and I thoroughly enjoyed the course.

Easy to follow at your own pace! Gives good foundations, and the homework aspect is useful.

SheCodes and Matt offer excellent tutorials on how to learn HTML, CSS and JavaScript, for beginners (like me) who have never coded or used coding languages before. The challenges and weekly homework really allow you to apply what you have learned so that you have a better understanding of the material. I am looking forward to continuing more SheCodes workshops in the future!

This workshop is a perfect way to get started with coding. It is very well structured and understandable. Being able to take the class and do homework flexibly was important to me, as I don't have regular work-hours. Having homework and deadlines helped keep me on track. Looking very forward to the next workshop!

SheCodes is a great way for beginners who are considering a career path in coding to dip their toes in the water without fully committing to a much more expensive bootcamp. The information is easily digestible and reinforced through homework and exercises.

Coming from a different background and knowing very little about programming languages, SheCodes gave me the tools and knowledge I needed to start exploring the world of coding. I loved the challenges and weekly homework! I never imagined how fun coding could be!

I learned a lot. It was really a good course. All necessary details were very well explained, and the homework was practical. Thank you #shecodes

I am really enjoying She Codes. It’s very interesting and exciting. Love the content, the way the curriculum is planned explained very well and the way the lessons are delivered. Homework is a big part of SheCodes workshops, some piece of homework can be very challenging but enjoyable at the same time.

I thoroughly enjoyed taking the self-paced Basics class at SheCodes. Matt is an awesome instructor and while classes are pre-recorded, I felt as if they were live because Matt was engaging, entertaining, and really broke down concepts to make them understandable. I loved having the lessons and homework as a I learn by doing. I also had a ton of support with the SheCodes Slack community and was able to ask for help when needed or check the threads for tips and guidance on assignments.

I really enjoyed this course and would highly recommend it to any woman who is interested in taking her first steps in coding. Matt's instruction videos are easy to follow and I liked the hands-on approach. Another plus is the amazing support team that offers quick solutions in case you get stuck with any homework or challenge. Overall, I am pretty amazed at how much I was able to learn in such a short amount of time.

I have had so much fun doing this course! I procrastinated a lot before starting my homework every week but once I started, I was not able to stop obsessing over all the different things I can do with what Matt taught during the course. I am really glad I signed up to the course and can't wait to learn more so I am able to creatively express myself. Matt has made this a really fun and immersive learning experience.

great tutorials, very interesting homeworks! Thanks for your work!

Loved SheCodes Plus & proud of my final project!! The structure of the course with the education, challenges and homework really helps you learn and apply the skills in a practical way. Thank you Matt - what an experience!!

Thank you to Matt and the whole SheCodes team for creating such an amazing learning environment! The videos and homework are perfect to learn everything to get you started in the coding world, and I look forward to starting my career in the world of development.

Unlike other online courses, this is actually impossible do drop. The frequent deadlines, challenges and homework do not let you procrastinate and slack off, but the workload is well balanced and the learning program coherent and easy to follow. It's like being in an actual school but with the comfort of your own home and time!

I would highly recommend She Codes to anyone whether or not you are a beginner in coding or have some experience. Although I had experience in Java and Python, I decided to enroll in She Codes because I'm always looking to improve my coding skills and also wanted to gain skills in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Matt is also a great instructor and his teaching skills are very great making the course super easy to follow. The She Codes team was always available for help with homework if needed as well. Overall, I would highly recommend She Codes!

SheCodes was a very good introduction to coding for me. I found the material was presented in an easy-to-understand way and did a great job of piquing my curiosity to learn more about coding! I like that the homework assignments reinforce what I learned and that the final project brought everything together.

Prior to starting SheCodes, I had no coding experience nor knew if it was something I'd enjoy, but Matt's videos are fun and super easy to follow. The challenges in between lessons are a perfect test of what was just learned. Even if I didn't grasp a concept initially, I could always go back and watch the lessons; even from previous modules. What I really enjoyed is I could watch the videos and do my homework from anywhere in the world, on my own time. I am also grateful for the amazing SheCodes team who were quick, kind and patient when answering questions. Thanks!!

I am delighted with this project. The daily homework keeps me from relaxing and forgetting the previously taught material.

I really loved this React course and I highly recommend it! it is easy to understand and has homeworks every week that makes sure you practice coding as well as learning. Thank you!

I appreciate how SheCodes doesn't underestimate the participants. In most coding courses I've followed, you have to 'copy the instructor', but here you get a challenge where you have to apply what you've learnt in a different scenario than the explanation video. I've had a lot of fun with the homework; and that's a first! The freedom you get in your solutions is great, since you don't have to deliver an exact match. If you have a solution that's slightly different than the suggested one, that's no problem at all!

Highly enjoyable I would seriously recommend this course to anyone wanting to try something new. Workload is not too much or too little and the weekly homework can easily be completed around a work schedule.

Going through this workshop was not an easy task on top of other commitments. However, the team at SheCodes as well as all of the women in the Slack community have been a tremendous help. Every completed homework assignment gave me hope and the will to continue. I look forward to continuing to the next course and beyond. Thank you so much, Matt and SheCodes team! You guys are a treasure🪙

SheCodes was fun and engaging! It kept me motivated and on track with the challenges and homework! I really enjoyed learning CSS! I can't believe in such a short amount of time I was able to learn so much! Can't wait to see what I'll learn next in my coding journey. Thanks SheCodes! :)

I am happy that I decided to take this workshop, every week was challenging but it was satisfying to see how in the end it all came together. The instructional videos were very useful as I keep referring back to them and having access to the slack community helped me keep pushing forward whenever I was getting stuck on a homework problem. Looking forward to my next workshop!

Just completed my SheCodes Responsive. It was indeed very challenging and I love how it made me to find the solutions and get the codes work. With the daily challenges, weekly homework, and projects I practiced more on what I have learned and strive myself to provide a creative and responsive project. Thank you to Prof Matt and the SheCodes team for wonderful learning journey and support.

Loved the journey, bit hard at times but Matt did a great job explaining and the challenges+homework has helped to solidify your learning. The projects were fun too; finishing SheCodes Pro is a bittersweet moment as I'll miss this but can't wait for the next part of my journey! Thank you SheCodes :)

Easy to understand and made me want to do the homework.

This is the second time I've tried coding! This time round it's all made much more sense and I've had much more success as a result. I've really enjoyed learning and expanding my knowledge and found the tutorials really clear and easy to understand! Loved having weekly homework to keep me motivated throughout the whole course.

This course was super great, easy to understand and the tasks, homework and project all helped, I gained a lot through this

Great experience! Both lessons and homework are really interesting. It was smooth start of my coding journej. Thank You for this platform, i can't wait to start new level!

I have enjoyed SheCodes so much more than I thought I would when I started. The workshops were very interactive - the challenges and homework really helped to understand what we were learning/memorising code. And the final project was really fun!

SheCodes gave me an opportunity to learn coding even though I don't have any idea about coding, it exciting and fun with all those homework's. I hope to learn more and be better with every courses. And the best thing is when I completed my final project with my own ideas and feeling accomplished! Thank you Matt and all the slack support teams for prompt feedbacks!

I've already recommended this workshop to my friends. Before starting the basic workshop, I've been studying HTML,CSS and JS for a couple of months. So it helped me to do my homeworks faster.

Everything is clearly understood. Homework adds practice)

The weekly breakdown of the workshop made the whole course easy to follow. Matt is a great instructor and explained each lesson clearly and thoroughly. I was able to complete the course at my own pace and never felt overwhelmed juggling work and getting homework submitted by the deadline each week. I highly recommend SheCodes to anyone wanting to learn code while working fulltime! 🙌🏽🥳

After having been interested in coding for ages, I finally decided to give it a try. This workshop was the perfect start for a beginner like me. I enjoyed the mixture of video input and practical exercises. Connecting with other coders on Slack was a big plus and homework was reviewed very swiftly!

This course was extremely fun to complete. The educational videos were easy to follow and with a good number of homework exercises to guarantee that we would put into practice everything that we were learning. This is a great way to learn how to code and I recommend to everyone. I'm very proud of my final project as I would never imagine I would be able to build something like this when I started the course with zero code knowledge or experience. Thank you!!

This was a great beginning to CSS, HTML, and JavaScript. The homework projects were fun and manageable, and I never felt overwhelmed.

Excellent course. The course information is very well organized and presented in an understandable way. All topics are well presented and developed. Homework after class helps in a better understanding of new knowledge. Recommend for passing.

I find learning coding one of the greatest decisions that I made! SheCodes offers lessons and homework that are very well-organized and easy to follow. I had so much fun studying HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.

Perfect lessons for people who start from zero. Lots of interesting info in short lessons. Homeworks that you really wanna do) Cant wait to start new level of study)

The homework system is wonderfully done, that is, everything you need is in the lessons + an additional opportunity to ask for advice in the Slack community. Now I saw what I can do and what I still need to improve, what to develop further. Thank you for the opportunity to start mastering the web programming base for free!

Thanks Matt for a very accessible presentation of information. I liked the challenges and homework, I'm looking forward to the next materials and I'm ready to start doing the exercises.

I just loved the flow of the course. It was organized in a way that made sense. However, I do have one criticism. In our homework and final project assignments, we were asked to do things that were not covered in the lectures at all. I appreciate being able to look things up on our own to make something work, but I wish that expectation had been set at the beginning of the course so it wasn't such a surprise.

I am so excited to be one of SheCodes coders, with the daily challenges, weekly homework, and projects I can practice more on what I learned, as we know practice makes perfect. Looking forward to becoming an expert as a frontend developer.

SheCodes is the first web development course I decided to take because I always wanted to learn how to build my own website. I really loved how the course was structured and how it motivated me to submit a homework every week and how it connected me with so many women, like me, learning how to code. Moreover, I loved Matt's way of explaining the course materials and I appreciated how he took his time to dissect difficult concepts. I truly enjoyed taking this course and I would definitely recommend it to every women wanting to learn more about web development and computer languages in general. We do need more women in STEM and SheCodes is helping us just do that :)

Really enjoyed this workshop and I've learned so much. Matt explains everything so well in the videos, and the challenges and homework are great practice. I highly recommend this workshop to anyone who wants to learn coding!

Coding is expained in a simple way, homeworks are fun and interesting, everyone can learn at their own pace and revise the content over and over again if necessary. The whole course has been very helpful.

I had such a good time completing SheCodes Basics! Each lesson was broken down into small, manageable parts and the concepts were easy to understand. The homework assignments built upon the lessons which made learning that much easier.

A really great course for beginners. Teaches everything at a good pace and the challenges/homework are very helpful. Would highly recommend.

The course is easy to follow. The challenges really made it easier to learn, without being too overwhelming. Loved the homework exercises and fast respond from the team.

I enjoyed doing all the challenges, homework, and project! Each exercise required me to utilize prior and new knowledge which helped me understand the content even more. Would definitely recommend anyone who has the slightest interest in coding to take this course.

I enjoyed the course. The videos were not too long, and covered just enough of each topic. The challenges and homework assignments were a good way to practise what I'd just learned. I appreciated the structure and the deadlines as they made me keep up the momentum. And, I enjoyed the final project.

“Matt is a great instructor, he explains everything really well. I especially liked the homework at the end of each week, because you could put into practice everything you learned during the week. Thank you Matt! 😉”

It was my second course after SheCodes Basic. Generally, I like it. Matt's video are rather simple and clear. If you have problems with homework (students have them always 😅) you can always to get help from tech.assistants in Slack. Thanks to all SheCodes team! I like coding more and more, course by course 😀. I will continue to learn how to code definitely. It's fascinating 😋

I finished other level in course. It was difficult sometimes to make a homework. But great support frome the team helped me a lot.

Highly recommend this coding class for beginners who want to learn how to code! Although there was a lot to cover, the lessons were easy to follow. The challenges and homework were at times challenging but satisfying when you get the solution. Thank you SheCodes team for a great learning experience!

I am a working full time and a mom of a 1 year old girl, but learning this basic course was so fun that I am always looking forward to do my homeworks and the activities. I didn't imagine that coding is fun and exciting.

SheCodes has blown all of my expectations out of the water! As someone who has never coded a day in her life, I found the lessons to be straightforward and easy to follow along. The challenges and homework really helped me to cement my knowledge and to build upon each new concept. Furthermore, the deadlines helped me to stay on track with my coding lessons by providing structure to my already busy life. A huge thank you to Matt (who is an amazing instructor by the way) for creating SheCodes and for allowing women to have a chance at breaking into the tech industry! I will definitely be continuing on to the advanced workshops!

I really enjoyed this class because the lessons were short, clear and useful. I understood what I was taught and was able to remember elements while writing code. I appreciate that there are homework lessons and practices so you do not get lost. Many lessons and concepts were refreshed effectively.

It was a super exciting and enjoyable journey on learning the basics of HTML, CSS and JavaScript. Although I already know how to code I loved this course😊 Everything is so comprehensible and well-organized. Homework is super creative and understandable. Hundred-percent recommend it!

SheCodes plus has been outstanding. This workshop enables you to work actively on implementing new features for your project and get hands-on experience planning, troubleshooting, and writing code. Matt is a fantastic instructor who builds up your confidence as you go and guides you excellently. I've been trying to navigate learning to code from other resources, but they can't even begin to compare. Some pros: + Your code gets reviewed by an actual developer + Excellent instructor + You learn to plan, troubleshoot and search for information on how to solve a problem from the get-go. + Huge slack community with 24/7 support + Fun final project that feels useful to make + Learning API manipulation at an early stage + Homework deadlines push you to finish within a set time-frame +++ A bunch more! I look forward to the next course and the future as a developer!

I really liked the courses. Everything is accessible and explained in detail. There were no problems with homework. And if you have any questions, the staff will always help. I am Ukrainian and for me at this stage of my life this development is very important. SheCodes provided training free of charge. I am very grateful for this opportunity. In any situation, one should not be afraid to act, believe in success and make every effort to achieve a result. Join and you will succeed! Good luck!

I enjoyed this workshop and learnt an amazing amount of knowledge in just 3 weeks. It's a great mix of theory and practical hands on learning. The regular challenges and homework were great motivation at staying on track and having access to the slack group was fantastic. I can't wait to start She Codes Plus!

It was completely new world for me in the beginning, but learning with SheCodes is so easy and so much fun! I enjoyed each and every video and homework.

This basic workshop helped me to learn the firsts steps about coding, Im make myself proud in every challenge and homework successfully completed

A very excellent course that teaches practical application of js knowledge. The maximum amount of useful information you will need for project development. And prepare for the homework of the second week, if you want to make a good design, it may take you a long time 😜
